90% Knitting - Episode 7

So sorry for the horrible lighting in this episode! Between needing to have my ceiling light on and my unforunate choice of a hot pink shirt (never! again!), the colors in this episode are quite off at some parts. Blargh. :(

Thank you to everyone who introduced themselves in the Ravelry group this week! We've over 200 members now, and to celebrate that, I did a couple of random drawings. Wombatknitter and flangel813 will both be receiving a little something direct from my stash!

Stash enhancement - I fell down with a large Rios purchase from TLE's update last Monday. Also received a lovely skein of Wollmeise in the mail in a swap, and I won a TLE gift certificate as well as a skein of Bugga in Blue Lobster from the Spring Fling Feb. KAL.

This week's Ravelry group Quickie KAL pattern is the Mitered Leaf Shamrock, by Vickie Howell. Great way to knit a little something for St. Patrick's Day next week and use up some leftovers in the process!

Hi Lisa, The yarns you are dying are really turning out so beautiful, are you sure you just started dying? I'm looking forward to your new shop opening.Now let's open my Buddy Case. I have in it several types of stitch markers,scissors,retractable tape measure,row counter,needle threader,and a few needles in the lid.I use that divider in the lid to keep those needles secure. I put it in whatever project bag I'm taking with me and I always have what I would need with me.I'm going to the Wooster show this year, maybe we'll get to meet.Thanks for your great video-castsSherri
